A87056	Hammond, Samuel, d. 1665.	Gods judgements upon drunkards, swearers, and sabbath-breakers. In a collection of the most remarkable examples of Gods revealed wrath upon these sins with their aggravations, as well from scripture, as reason. And a caution to authority, lest the impunity of these evils bring a scourge upon the whole nation. By W. L.	1659		.xml	application/xml	30737	844	64	1. That Gods judgments are not not like arrows shot into the Aire at randome , he does not {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} , God hath blessed ends , either to reclaim the party smitten , i● judgements short of death seize on them , or to be ● Pillar of salt to others , that they may hear , fear , and do n● more so : those Jews that exemplarily fell in the wildernesse ; they are said 1 Cor. 10.6 . to be {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} , types to future generations ; they are engraven characters of divine vengeance , that we should read their punishment , and avoid their sin . Magistrates are not to beare the Sword in vain ; if you do not quarrel with sin , God will with you ; you are , or should ●e , the Banks of the Common-wealth , to keep us from a Land-flood , and Torrent of confusion ; you are the Hed●es to prophanesse : The life of the Law is executions ; It s a principle in Moral Policy , That not to execute the Lawes , is worse than to break them , Acts and Ordinances will not beat down prophanesse , unlesse the first be throughly acted , and the last set on fire by authority : many take encouragement by the slack execution of Justice , which otherwise might with care prove a hinderance , not onely from sin , but punishment , nay , it may be , from Eternal flames .	cache/A87056.xml	txt/A87056.txt
